Reasonable buff to war

[BarretOblivion]

Maybe because War was the little favorite for 2 whole expansions before (4 years), in SB it was to the point where devs directly accepted influencers ideas, like with Inner release ?

Like, I get that things are not shiny now but it's only been 3 months of suboptimal, throwing a tantrum after 4 years of topspot and being pampered would be ill received, at least I know I would. But I think I wouldn't be the only one to say "come back in 6 months then we'll consider".

The only reason it was the favorite in SB was Holmgang and having the highest tank damage, it sure as crap wasn't its rotation. HW WAR was the best tank that worked in all fights, unlike DRK/PLD which had to basically do a relay between fights with each other.

I'm not saying it was the rotation that made him the best, but that it's the clue he was a real favourite.
So much it began to be custom made, like design on demand to some influencers ideas. It was already n°1 in damage, even when you were not so lucky with crits in burst windows, someone got whining "I am still too much crit dependant, we should be criting every FC" and you're like yeah right as if you needed that but BAM ; within 2 months it got inner release rework full guaranteed crit DH in debuff window, like wth.
Meanwhile Bards had to wait an expansion to not be so stat dependant desperately seeking always crit stuff pieces because both part of their rotation AND their damage felt like shit without 3k + crit.

All I'm saying is : it's never fun to get stripped of things, but please deal with not being top for a few months after 4 years of domination.
